DEALER SERVICE
The following pages contain instructions on
the required maintenance from the technical
personnel who designed the vehicle.
In addition to these specific maintenance
instructions specified for routine scheduled
servicing, there are other components which
may require periodic maintenance or replace-
ment over the vehicle’s life cycle.
Engine Oil
Engine Oil Level Check
To ensure correct engine lubrication, the oil
must always be kept at the prescribed level
(see “Engine Compartment” in this chapter).
Check the oil level at regular intervals, for
example every 1,864 miles (3,000 km).
It must be checked once full operating
temperature is reached.
The vehicle must also be parked on as level a
surface as possible.
The engine oil level can be checked using the
Information and Entertainment system. To
access the function, activate the main menu
(MENU button) and select the following
options in sequence: “Applications”; “My Car”;
“Oil level”.
Changing The Engine Oil
See the “Maintenance Plan” for the correct
servicing intervals.
Choice Of Engine Oil Type
To ensure optimal performance and maximum
protection in all operating conditions, it is
advisable to use solely certified engine oils
(see description in “Fluid And Lubricants” in
the “Technical Specifications” chapter).
Additives For Engine Oil
It is strongly recommended not to use addi-
tives (other than leak detection dyes) with the
engine oil.
The engine oil is a product designed specially for
the vehicle and its performance may be deterio-
rated through the use of further additives.
Disposal Of Used Engine Oil And Filters
For the disposal of the engine oil and filters,
contact the appropriate body to determine
local regulations.
NOTE:
Used engine oil disposed of incorrectly may
seriously harm the environment.
Engine Oil Filter
Replacing The Engine Oil Filter
The engine oil filter must be replaced each
time the engine oil is changed. It is advised to
replace it with a genuine spare part, specifi-
cally designed for this vehicle.
Air Filter
Replacing The Air Cleaner
See the “Maintenance Plan” for the correct
servicing intervals. It is advised to replace it with
a genuine spare part, specifically designed for
this vehicle.
Air Conditioning System Maintenance
To ensure the best possible performance, the
air conditioning system must be checked and
undergo maintenance at an authorized dealer
at the beginning of the summer.
CAUTION!
Do not use chemicals to clean the air
conditioning system, since the internal
components may be damaged. This kind of
damage is not covered by warranty.
